It can be overwhelming to start your first bug out bag if you don’t have a lot of extra cash lying around. Survival equipment adds up and often the most well-known, quality products are extremely expensive. Just do a quick search online and your jaw might very well drop when you see the prices for knives, bags, and canteens!
